5.0 out of 5 stars Sinuous, well-muscled, musical poetry
I am particularly impressed by the tension between passion and reticence, between the deft & disciplined craft and wild heart loose in the world. A wonderful, provocative poet. I'll be eager to read her next book.

3.0 out of 5 stars shows promise
It isn't that she is a bad poet or that the poems were bad. They just weren't great poems and they didn't personally reach out to me.

It isn't that she is a bad poet or that the poems were bad. They just weren't great poems and they didn't personally reach out to me. My biggest fault with the poems was that they seemed to be held at a distance from the reader. There was a certain amount of coldness for lack of a better word. They were very musical, both in subject matter (most poems dealt with music in one way or another) and in her style of writing. Schoerke handles both formal verse and free verse very well. I think she has a lot of promise as a poet and I'm curious to see where she develops from here.
